I am sure there are those out there in Mini Land who may have tried or may in fact debunk my theorising, but if it worked and you could reduce the amount of fuel being completely wasted, and burn it instead, surely thats a worthwhile proposition? Especially if we could get a cheap removable lid knocked up for when we do some dyno runs. It'd be interesting that a consumable performance part could be so cheap. Alternatively we just remove that garden watering system and spray CO2 onto the IC.

Colder engine you say? Follow these steps:
1. Block aircon vents into cabin
2. Redirect cold air to engine bay
3. Enjoy

That should work nicely.
